Focus on Getting a Stronger Self-Belief

Think Like a Golfer

In many ways modern sports psychology is a child of the self-help movement of the early 20th Century. The idea that individuals could easily learn enough psychology to improve their personal performance was radical then, but commonplace today.

However, these early self-help writers built their approach using theological terms which were commonly understood at the time. In our modern world, that is no longer the case—although the terms themselves are still widely used. As a result, much of what passes for sports psychology sounds more like "wishcraft."

In Think Like a Golfer Mike Southern, author of the long-running Ruthless Golf blog, teaches you the lost concepts behind the terms... and he does it without writing an evangelistic tract! "The basics of self-belief," he writes, "are the same whether you're talking about belief in God, belief in yourself, or belief that your car will start when you turn the key in the morning."

In this book you'll learn:

how true self-belief differs from mere self-hypnosis and wishful thinking

the mechanics of self-belief—how a belief is actually built and grounded in reality so it improves your performance

why trying to believe "hard enough" rarely works

what useful self-talk sounds like and techniques for getting dependable results

how self-belief helps you make better strategy decisions on the course

how to avoid the pitfalls of self-doubt and deal with pressure

what "the Zone" is and how it's related to self-belief

Focus on Building a New Putting Stroke

The Putt Whisperer

Mike Southern's first putting book, Ruthless Putting, taught you how to turn your existing putting stroke into a scoring machine.

Now he teaches you how to build a completely new putting stroke from scratch.

When the USGA and the R&A decided to outlaw anchored putting strokes in 2016, it caught many weekend golfers off-guard. Most had gone to the belly putter because they couldn't putt well with a regular-length putter. Those golfers are no longer sure what they should do.

The Putt Whisperer explains:

exactly why the belly putter appears to help some players while not helping others

teaches you how to build a personalized putting stroke that incorporates all the necessary fundamentals

includes drills to teach you how a good stroke feels, and a process to help you develop a stroke you can trust

And unlike other putting books, The Putt Whisperer contains an extended section discussing what it means to have a "light grip pressure." A full 20% of this Quick Guide details the techniques you can use to adjust your grip pressure until you're putting with a repeatable stroke.

So why settle for a swing that’s either powerful or accurate when you can have both? Learn how to swing freely -- no matter how hard you want to swing -- and just HIT IT HARD! Order now for only $4.99!

Focus on Your Backswing & Change of Direction

Stop Coming Over-the-Top

"Whether you struggle with the swing flaw commonly called 'coming over-the-top' or not, this Quick Guide will probably help your game."

That bold first statement opens Stop Coming Over-the-Top, but it's true. The vast majority of swing faults in any weekend player's swing can be traced back to a poor takeaway and a poor change of direction at the top of the backswing. Using some simple instruction, a few easy drills, and 35 diagrams, Stop Coming Over-the-Top can help any golfer get his swing back on plane, as well as helping him improve distance and accuracy. In this Quick Guide you'll learn:

Focus on Better Scoring with Your Irons

Accurate Iron Play

Do you want to attack the pin and leave yourself shorter putts?

Then Accurate Iron Play is the Quick Guide for you. It focuses on the approach shot—what makes it different from a drive for distance—and how it enables you to zero in on your target. It looks at the techniques that improve both distance control and accuracy with your irons:

Understand the strategic choices involved in approach shots

"Hold" your wrist cock during the downswing

Avoid casting from the top

Make a crisp downward strike on the ball that prevents flipping

Learn to "dial in" distances with different irons

Control your trajectory

And more!

Accurate Iron Play is noticeably longer than some of the other Quick Guides simply because it covers so much material necessary to good iron play. However, the information is still presented in the most direct, condensed format possible so you don't waste time reading about golf when you can be playing instead. The first third of the guide focuses on the factors that affect your shot choices and the remainder of the book focuses on the techniques for actually making those shots.

The techniques for making better approach shots aren't hard to learn, and it doesn't take endless hours on the range to gain an amazing amount of control. All you need is a clear understanding of why the ball behaves as it does and how to choose and use the best iron for the job.

All you need is Accurate Iron Play. Order now for only $4.99!

Focus on Your Downswing & Gaining Distance

More Golf Swing Speed

How far do you want to hit the ball?

If you're like everybody else, your answer is "just a little farther."

Then More Golf Swing Speed is the Quick Guide for you. It focuses on the downswing—how you load the shaft at the top of your backswing and unload it at impact. It helps you understand both how to make the correct moves and how to avoid the incorrect ones:

"Hold" or even increase your wrist cock during the downswing

Avoid casting from the top

Develop maximum clubhead speed as you near impact

Learn how Hogan's supinated wrist position works

Create a downward strike on the ball that prevents flipping

And more!

There are no secret tricks to creating clubhead speed, and you don't need expensive training aids to create solid strikes on the ball. All you need is a clear understanding of what your club does during your downswing and how you can cooperate with it to get the most clubhead speed possible.
